Hi Leopold, quite frankly I do not understand what you are talking about. What I am talking about is the "debian" directory in xenomai sources. It seems simpler to me to have only one directory which works for all Debian branches, in order to allow users to generate packages for the distribution they want. That is all I am saying.
